Cleaning

Be sure to clean used trays before putting them into a collection box. Failure to do so will cause a foul odor.

Dring

After cleaning, dry the containers thoroughly. Wet trays and containers may become moldy, meaning that they will not be able to be recycled.

Others

Used containers should not be bound by rubber or other bands. If rubber or other bands are used, the containers cannot undergo the process at the recycling plant.
For the purpose of efficient recycling, please do not put anything other than used trays into the collection boxes. Do not put plastic bags into the collection boxes.
